"Crystal Symphony" out from Breivika harbor yesterday with course for Honningsvåg.
She is on an 18 day cruise that started in Oslo 16.07 and ends in Belgium 02.08
The ship will call Hammerfest, Bodø,Brønnøysund and Ålesund on the trip south according to the sailing plan.

OK, the midnight sun at this time of the year and the northern lights in the winter is one of the attractions, as is the dramatic landscape further south.
BTW; when does the sun dip below horizon as seen from North Cape? (I don't have the Nautical Almanac handy)
